I couldn’t live without itThe only product that works to permanently smooth/straighten my hair. The person applying the product has to know what they’re doing and what kind of result you want. Otherwise your hair can become damaged or it just won’t work. It can relax or completely straighten curly hair. Hope it never goes away

Very dissapointingI had this done at a hair salon last week and ended up with dry frizzy and still curly hair. It looked excellent when I walked out but as soon as washing it (after 4 days) it became curly, dry and unruly- possibly worse than how it was before I went to the salon. I trust the salon in doing a good job as they have had experience with this product but I feel it was the product that failed.
In the past I have had countless Keratin treatments as well as Bio Ionic permanent straightening. I have never had a problem and have found Bio Ionic to always deliver excellent results regardless of the condition of my hair.
Definitely reccommend spending the money and going for a higher end product if you have very curly hair.

GreatI dont know why everyone is having such a hard time in the comments. Im only 20 and not trained at all and I am successful 95% of the time with this, like literally its so easy and it works.
Its a blessing for my hair and makes it feel healthy and smooth, (except for this one spot every time it gets fried) other than that allllll of my hair is perfectly fine

Very Bad Product, do not use itMy stylist used this product & it totally spoiled my hair. I had soft wavvy & frizzy hair. After using this product, my hair is still wavy, 3 times more frizzy than before and it feels like a broom now. It is very very dry and rough. Do not use this product at all.

Never had straighter, silkier hair!I went to the salon & had this system used on my hair. I went from 1.5 hrs+ to get ready to go anywhere if I was going to wear my hair straight to 30 minutes from start of shower to the end. It blow dries Straight!!! I have NEVER had hair do that!!! It was always frizzy until I would get the ceramic straightener out& spend forever on it. I didnt even have to section off my hair this morning to dry or straighten it! I am just amazed. It's truly life changing for me.

A disaster Stylist dont follow instructionsHello, I made this treatment twice. The first time my hair was virgin and everything goes fine. The 2nd time was terrible. The same stylist use a different procedure: Does not put enough pre treatment and apply in all hair for about 30. Not on roots as directions says. Hair brokes in many parts, very ugly ) : I spent $400 for damaging my hair. What can I do? This is really frustrating and sad. I loose all my previous long hair. ) :
Really appreciate your advice. Thank you

First time great, second time, garbageSo it seems I have had the same problem as most. The first time I used this product(in a licensed salon) it was great. They applied it to all my hair and it worked great! When they had to do a touch up 3 months later and they only did my roots, it didn't work AT ALL. Not even on my roots. It's like they didn't do anything. I spent a few hundred dollars on it and it was horrible.

Pretty disappointedNaturally, after the shower my hair goes a fluffy kind of wavy and I've always hated it!
So I decided to treat myself and get my hair done. Wow this product and the final look was incredible I was over the moon! It was dead straight and felt incredible!
The hairdresser told me not to wash in for five days. After that I should be fine to go about life as normal, but less need to wash and straighten!
Five days later, a good wash and let air dry.
Little disappointed. Still had some pretty big waves. Maybe the product didnt get in there well enough. Who knows.
Three days later, my hair feels so greasy. Give it a wash.
Really disappointed. My hair is literally back to its natural way.
So upset. $300 and 4 hours worth of product down the drain...
No nice hair for me.

Drastic DifferenceI have had the Matrix Opti-smooth system applied to my hair several times over the last 2 years. It has taken my wavy, frizzy hair to straight and smooth. It is a chemical process though and therefore is drying to the hair (that's my only reason for giving 4 stars). Because it dries my hair out some, I have noticed more breakage; however, I use a deep conditioning mask once a week & that really seems to help. Wish I would've found this product sooner!

MOST AMAZING PRODUCT-CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT!I've bren using 2x a year for 10 years! Nothing short of amazing. I always have a salon perform treatment. I haven't used a blow dryer or straightening iron in all this time! I couldn't handle my hair & ever since I started this you would think I was born with straight hair-it's MAGIC. I actually wouldn't know what to do without it. Just imagine getting out of the shower and letting it air-dry like all those naturally straight haired women do-sounds like a dream right? Nope just OPTI SMOOTH. My absolute LIFE SAVER. And my hair is just as healthy as 10 years ago. Know your hair, know who's performing treatment & you'll never have to spend hours straightening it ever again! AMAZING!

DISASTER IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!I had the opti smooth done at the hairdressers and followed all the rules to a T. She had been doing them for years so I have faith that she followed the instructions correctly. My hair wasn't curly to start with, but had a slight wave in it and a bit of fluffiness which it what I was trying to get rid of. Now it is completely frizzy and unruly, soooo dry and basically has been burnt to a crisp. It is beyond repair and now I am going to have to get my hair cut about an inch short. I cant even hairspray or gel it down into a ponytail, you can still see the frizziness. I am devastated. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT.

Made my hair PERFECT!I have done opti-smooth twice now. The first time I tried the strong solution, and it was definitely strong. My hair was pin-straight and it lasted a whole year! Of course, after about 8 months it started getting slightly wavy again, but that was to be expected. The second time I did the normal treatment. It gave my hair a very natural looking wave without being too straight or too big. Highly reccommend to anyone who is sick of straightening their hair with a flat iron every day!

Matrix ExperienceI did this about 8 months ago and I will say that it did leave my hair very straight and it looked amazing however, when I noticed when I am combing through my hair there is a lot of fall out. I am worried and also I have been reading that the results are permanent and although it looks great and I do get a lot of compliments on it, I would really like my hair back. I was told to go for the second treatment in six months but I did not go. I believe I did the thermal process but now I am wondering if i would go back and do the cold smoothing or 3D Curls treatment would that help so that my natural hair would come back. I am confused and also the hair stylist I went to is great but he did not give me any tips or suggestions on what products I should use or anything. I am sad as this was something I had wanted to do for a long time. :(( Oh well I guess this is what happens when you don't ask questions. Now I am researching if there are ways for me to get back my naturally curly hair back. Wish me luck but I do recommend that if you do this, make sure you ask all the questions necessary until you feel comfortable to go ahead with the process.

Fantastic product!I had this done by a stylist at Regis Salon in Lincoln, NE and it is FANTASTIC. My hair is very thick, very curly and there's a lot of it. This looks amazing and I'm still stunned by the results. Tyson at Regis is a pro.

Both good and badI am bi-racial, and have gotten (lye-based) relaxes for most of my life. I've been looking for a new stylist in a convenient location and I believe I found one, just when I was due for a relaxer. The new stylist felt confident she could help me with my hair. She recommended the Cold Treatment. My hair felt absolutely amazing when I walked out of the salon. Very soft and smooth! I waiting 5 days before I washed it. When I did, I had a rude awakening. My hair felt so hard and stiff. It didn't matter how much or what kind of conditioner I used. My hair felt like straw!! It's never felt that way before...ever! I spent a good deal of money buying protein conditioning treatments. I sat under the dryer 3 times over 4 days deep conditioning my hair to get it feeling soft the way it did when I washed it prior to my first Martrix treatment. FINALLY, my hair feels soft again.
I have to say, I normally get a relaxer every 3 months. I'm terrified of having the Matrix Opti Cold Treatment again, because I'm afraid my hair will break if the stylist puts the treatment over the previously Opti treated hair. That would be devastating, so I have not yet decided how I'm going to relax my hair in a few months. I don't want to risk my hair breaking/falling out. It took a lot of deep conditioning to get it to not feel like straw when I wash it. Not sure how much more my hair can take.
Overall (and because I still have my hair) I'm glad I received the Matrix Opti Cold Treatment.

Great ResultsI just finished getting Opti Smooth for the fourth year in a row and I love it! I naturally have curly, thick hair and had always wanted to get it permanently straightened. After the first time of trying Opti Smooth I fell in love. I went to my usual hair salon because my hair dresser had done the process many times before (it is important for your stylist to know what he/she is doing!). My hair is perfectly pin straight, smooth, and lost the weird frizz I used to have with my curly hair! I love this product and it is worth every minute and penny that it takes.

Lifesaving!I have aleays hated my curly frizzy hair, but that was until Opti Smooth. Have had it done app. each 8 month for the last 8 years, and I cant praise it enough. It does not just make my hair straigt and soo easy managable, but the texture of my treated hair is much better than not treated. I have also tried similar products from other suppliers, and all of them give me straight hair, but not with the glow and silky feeling as with Opti Smooth. Thank you Matrix.

No changeI've always had curly, frizzy hair. My stylist suggested Opti-Smooth. Followed the stylist's instructions to the tee (don't get it wet, use these style products, etc). First day styling on my own and it looks exactly as it did before the treatment. Frizzy and dry. I'm not happy at all. Expensive and waste of time/money.

Completely damaged my hair!I had this applied a couple of months ago and have regretted it ever since. My hair can withstand pretty much anything and this product completely fried my hair. I have used keratin treatments in the past without any issues but the texture of my hair completely changed with this product, and it felt like straw. I have had to cut my hair very short as there was no repairing it. It will take a year to grow out as the damage is at the roots. HUGE MISTAKE

Sad I want to cryMy hairdresser bought the Opti Smooth system believing it to be the same as a Keratin smoothing/straightner. I expected my hair to be like the last Keratin treatment I had - healthy, shiny, easy to comb and move - instead, my hair is frizzy, damaged and hard to style. I have spent nearly 2 hours trying to make my hair look like normal to no avail. Don't use unless you want to chemically straighten your hair. My reason for wanting the Keratin system was to avoid the damage of chemicals. Not happy and I have tried your Biolage Keratindose dose and it is not working. What can I do to get rid of the straw like feel and appearance please? I'm desperate. I am $250 out of pocket and am depressed.

Ugh. Went in for a keratin treatment...I made an appointment for a keratin treatment. I LOVE keratin treatments. My hair loves keratin treatments. My stylist apparently thought the Opti Smooth with keratin was the same thing. NO. Halfway through the process, I asked to know what it was, as this was not the normal keratin procedure. Opti-Smooth! I did not want, nor need, a chemical straightener. I have spent years growing out a bad haircut. It is finally very long and beautiful again. And today I walked out of the salon $100 poorer and with dry, damaged, breaking hair. This is terrible. I am so angry. Now, I have to spend the next 4 years doing this all over again.

Best anti-curl yet!I am blonde but have the thickest curly hair 3b,3c and have always had to relax it. In the past, my go to was the Rusk anti-curl. I couldnt believe it but I love this so much better! My hair feels manageable but not poker straight (cold process) and half of the thickness. It is soft and feels conditioned. Even in the rain my hair looks good. It doesn't look chemically processed like cotton candy hair, just less big and smooth and manageable. I really love it! If I want it smoother I can always use the iron but Im just blow drying and loving it.
